I’m super excited to share with you my interview with Sports Illustrated Swim and Victoria’s Secret model, Jessica Pérez. Jessica is one of eight young models competing in the international Sports Illustrated 2011 Model Search and has been in the lead with more than double the votes until today. The winner is guaranteed a spot in the 2012 swimsuit edition! Jessica is from Costa Rica, and has lived in Ecuador and Honduras, before moving to the US. Jessica comes across as a very smart young lady with an incredible sense of humor and passion for life. Add all these to her stunning looks makes a perfect receipt for a rising star.

Marta Walsh: Where do you call home?
Jessica Pérez: Hmm… that’s always a tough question for me because my parents live in Ecuador so that’s where the house that I call ‘home’ is, but I feel that Costa Rica as a country is my ‘home.’ I also feel New York is home since this is where I have my apartment.

I’m excited to share with you my interview with Supermodel Michelle Alves. Known as “The Body”, nickname she shares with fellow models Elle McPherson and Gisele Bündchen, Michelle Alves could also be called the ultimate “Cover Girl” just as well. With over 100 magazine covers to her credit over the course of her career, including titles such as Vogue, Elle, L’Officiel, French, Marie Claire, Esquire and Bazaar of all four corners of the world and editorials for the best fashion magazines of the industry, like I-D, Numéro, 10, POP, Flair, V, V Man and W; Michelle has become a true fashion chame- leon.

CHANEL Celebrity Makeup Artist Angela Levin worked with Gwyneth Paltrow at The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Show on Sunday, February 13th. Marta Walsh has the scoop on how to get Gwyneth’s chic, sexy rock and roll red carpet makeup look.

“I wanted sexy rock chic for Gwyneth! After applying a light layer of CHANEL Hydramax + Active Moisture Cream and waiting about ten minutes for it to absorb, I applied CHANEL Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup in BR20 (available in March 2011).

Hairstylist Creighton Bowman and makeup artist Sonia Lee share with Marta Walsh and Talking Makeup their tips on how they got Zooey Deschanel ready for her premiere of “My Idiot Brother” at 2011 Sundance.

Sonia prepped her skin with Votre Vu skin care before applying very light makeup:

“I started with SpecialEyes Intensive Eye Treatment, Champagne Kisses Enhancing Lip Balm and Tragic Magic Rescue Crème for a good nourishing base all over the face, eyes and lips – which is essential in the weather we have at Sundance.

If you didn’t know by now, my name is Marta Walsh and I’m not only the founder and editor of US’ top fashion and beauty blog TalkingMakeup.com but I’m alson a North Scottsdale REALTOR at Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty with a passion for the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley Arizona luxury real estate market. Therefore I like to explore my neighborhood and find out where are the coolest places to live and dine. One of my favorite areas in Scottsdale is Kierland.

Well I hear that Kierland is actually Phoenix and the recently developed Scottsdale Quarter across the street is Scottsdale. But for some reason Kierland stuck as Scottsdale in my head.
